### Standing items

- [ ]

### From previous meeting(s)

- [x] (HV) `-dev` vs. `-devel`
- came up in boost unification, current PR uses the latter based on Isuru's [rationale](https://github.com/conda-forge/boost-feedstock/pull/164#issuecomment-1681583116)
- matches Anaconda naming & CDTs, does not match recent CUDA feedstocks, tangentially related to distro discussion (RHEL vs. Debian). We should try to choose one.
- JRG: [Our own data](https://github.com/conda-forge/boost-feedstock/pull/164#issuecomment-1691100805)
- [x] (HV) Branch deletion policy?
- I'd [suggest](https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io/issues/1972) to delete dead branches on feedstocks (e.g. long-EOL maintenance branches), and keep history as a git tag on the feedstock. Thoughts?
- MRB: Historic norm is to leave this to feedstock maintainers.
- JRG: if we go this way, make it happen via admin-requests, not through UI with no papertrail (automation for the win!)


### Active votes

- [ ]

### Your `__new__()` agenda items

- [x] (HV) Yearly python releases vs. 5 year upstream support
- Releases moved closer together due to PEP602, 3.8 still has one full year before its EOL when we start with 3.12 migration ([details](https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io/issues/2004#issuecomment-1717526948)).
- Generally: Do we prefer 5 CPython builds, or are we fine with dropping support for `v3.{N-4}` one year before its EOL?
- Jannis: Look at https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-package-data/issues/41 again
- MRB: conclusion "we'll make a best-effort committment to all 5 python versions but individual feedstock manitainers may remove older versions at their discretion."

- [x] (IF) MinGW with UCRT64 toolchain and updated M2
- Binary repackage of MSYS2 packages
(for build only. No linking with downstreams)
- Binary repackage of `libgcc, libwinpthread`
- Getting rid of `m2w64-` packages
- Can we use MSVC/VisualStudio built packages?
- Are there any that we use with C++ dependencies?
- Current use is limited to https://gist.github.com/isuruf/d24ebbfaf06318beb992349c90e61ca0
- MSYS2 bug: `$(cygpath -w $(cygpath -u $CONDA_PREFIX/Library/bin)) = $CONDA_PREFIX/Library/usr/bin`
- Get more storage on anaconda.org/isuruf
- Jannis: I'll ask at Anaconda, how much do you need?
- 2GB

- [X] (SC) Emscripten-wasm-32 builds on conda-forge
- Presentation of emscripten-forge by Thorsten Beier
- Presentation of use cases
- Potential CFEP opening
- Questions:
- Use CMake directly instead of em-make (?)
- Compiler ABI incompatibilities might make it hard to have global migrations.
- Support needed at conda-index & anaconda.org: add issue in conda/infrastructure.
- We should start an issue in conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io


### Pushed to next meeting

- [ ] (JK) NumPy 2.0 planning
- https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge.github.io/issues/1997
- https://github.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-repodata-patches-feedstock/issues/516
- HV: Should be possible to only build against 2.x, result [will be](https://githubx.com/conda-forge/conda-forge-pinning-feedstock/issues/4816#issuecomment-1717038980) ABI-compatible with 1.2x
- IF: It will **not** be ABI compatible if the package author changes
`NPY_TARGET_VERSION`. Need ways to ensure that it does not happen.
- [ ] (JRG) Post-mortem on the [Windows upload issue](https://github.com/conda-forge/status/issues/157) introduced in conda-smithy 3.26 (now fixed)

- [ ] (JL) FYI the creation of a conda "build tools" team under conda governancy policy (still federated until team figures out team charter) for conda-build and hopefully other build tools, welcome to join:
- [ ] https://github.com/conda/conda-build/issues/4698
